Locs en treinstellen - Italië: boeken - overzichten

Italian Traction

De Italiaanse spoorwegen worden voornamelijk beheerd door de nationale vervoerder Trenitalia. Door de ligging aan de Middellandse Zee is grensoverschrijdend verkeer beperkt, hoewel belangrijke routes bestaan bij Brenner in het noordwesten en Chiasso in het noorden. Het noorden van het land kent het drukste passagiers- en goederenverkeer.

De meest voorkomende locomotieven zijn de elektrische Class 464 met meer dan 700 eenheden bij Trenitalia en Trenord. Andere elektrische klassen zijn de 402 en 444, terwijl dieselklassen 345 en 445 enkele passagiersroutes bedienen. Het goederenvervoer wordt voornamelijk door Trenitalia uitgevoerd, met kleinere exploitanten zoals DB. De vrachtvloot van Trenitalia omvat locomotieven van Class 632 tot de opvallende 655/656.

Dit boek toont de verscheidenheid aan Italiaanse tractie, van hogesnelheidstreinen tot regionale en goederentreinen, met gedetailleerde informatie en illustraties voor zowel liefhebbers als professionals.

I depositi locomotive di Bologna 1973-2023

Located strategically in the Padan quadrilateral, the Locomotive Depots of Bologna Centrale and San Donato have always played a crucial role in scheduled maintenance and traction for all categories of trains. Through the lens of photographers Franco Dell'Amico, Roberto Cocchi, Alberto Perego, Carlo Pozzi, and Maurizio Tolini, we trace the extensive historical journey between two eras of railcars, locomotives, and railcars that concluded their careers at the "Deposito del Lazzaretto."

Following the closure of the San Donato facility due to the rapid decline in freight traffic favoring the automotive sector, the yard was abandoned and used for the storage of rolling stock awaiting demolition.
In 2017, RFI's foresight identified the San Donato facility as an opportunity to create a test circuit, following the model of European "track-tests" in Velim and Wildenrath, with the aim of competing internationally at 3kV and 25kV. The circuit spans 5759 meters, including 2000 meters of double track.
Detached from the national network, it allows the circulation of all types of rolling stock, even those without a safety certificate.
